The enlarged medallion portraits average a diameter of about 18 cm. Goltzius's plates were based on considerable resear into ancient and medieval coins; where he found no satisfactory image (as fo number of the Carolingian and Ottonian monarchs) he printed a blank roundel. The portraits were printed with a black outline block and two tone blocks in brown tints. These illustrations were also used in the Italian (1557), Frenc (1559), and Spanish (1560) editions. In addition to the chiaroscuro prints i features a chiaroscuro title page which is an excellent example of northern renaissance decoration. This present work, the first German edition, is considered to be much rarer than the Latin edition which was published the sa year. Prince Liechtenstein's copy, with his bookplate.
